Israel builds nightclub on Muslim cemetery in Quds

The Israel regime has built a nightclub on a historic Muslim cemetery in East al-Quds ('Jerusalem') which houses the remains of some companions of Hazrat Mohammad (peace be upon him) and prominent intellectuals.

News reports indicate that Israeli forces have already opened a club and café built on part of the land, which has been stolen by Israelis, of the Islamic cemetery of Ma’manillah in the occupied city.

The latest move is considered as part of the Israeli policy of accelerating Judaization and desecration of Islamic landmarks in the historic city.

Meanwhile, several regional and international organizations have condemned Israel's continuation of desecrating the cemetery.

The cemetery is the oldest and biggest graveyard in Palestine. It also includes several historic shrines and tombs. 

Sources say burials in Ma’manillah cemetery continued until 1948, when the illegitimate Israeli entity was created on the land of historic Palestine. Israelis later confiscated the cemetery and turned it into a public park.
